What is Blissful state and is it possible to attain such a state?

Being happy is the birth right of every creature. Being Independent, having a free choice and to act in a line appealing to oneself is similarly the birth right. For various reasons, we have imposed certain constraints and restraints to our activity and behavior. These have become necessary that one’s…

Human Life:

by Dr N C Ramanujachary

Human life is an admixture of happiness and sorrow. Every living person wants to be happy. Each person defines happiness in his or her own way and by experimentation; exploration finds a way to happiness. Sorrow is attempted to be totally eradicated but it reoccurs through some other door or window of life. Everything in life is in a passing stage. Even when sorrow is set aside…

A PHILOSOPHER

Dr. N C Ramanujachary

A Philosopher’s endeavor is basically to work for the Perfection of Humanity. He does this by his oration, sets a role-model by his own conduct to the audiences he comes into contact. He is normally a well-informed person on the Laws that govern the Universe, their working systems and how men and women of the world could modulate their own methods of working in relation to…

EO in his foot note on last page of the Eliphas Levi’s Paradoxes of the Highest Science says:



Let your exact science, so proud of her achievements and discoveries, remember that the grandest hypotheses - I mean those that have now become facts and undeniable truths - have all been guessed, were the results of spontaneous inspiration (or intuition) - never those of…

Hi all,

I just wrote a blogpost on my Modern Theosophy Blog and not till I was finished did I notice it was the day after White Lotus. Here it is: 

Theosophists must excuse me for once more butting in where I no longer have any business. I was thinking just now about where the Theosophical Movement went wrong. When did, in…

“For those not interested in quick worship, the most valuable Theosophical writers could actually be the ones who use the most perhapses, possiblys, mights, and maybes.”—General Theosophy (perhaps)

“If, psychologically speaking, you do not have a ‘soul’ but, rather, merely the possibility to enSoul various types of contaminated ‘I-delusions,’ you should, therefore, in order to ‘survive’ in this lifetime and perhaps into the next as well, probably try to enSelf your-‘selves.’”—General Theosophy

Wisdom: Its various aspects in Human Living

Wisdom has an inexplicable and a 'difficult to explore' place in human understanding and living. Yet scholars, poets and creative artistes have found their own way of enjoying and the same time expressing it to others, the common folk too, in innumerable methods.

All the fine arts, not to speak of the sacred scriptural texts, are a clear illustration to this humane act. The manifestation of the…

In all online forums, frequently we come across long posts. Indeed it is understandable that complex ideas and situations need explanations which tend to end up as a long post.



Many who browse forums as well as on maillists, have limited amount of time to read and review posts and emails of interest. This is simply a factual matter since many have daytime jobs and they spend time on Internet after hours. Many tend to ignore long posts due to time constraints.



In the above…

We can only make our life worthwhile when we give its while.

All knowledge must come from within. I could tell you this and that and you could listen but in the end you have to be cognizant of what I have told you, you must accept and practice your new-found knowledge, otherwise it is of waste. Wisdom is useless unless you can make practical use of it. You must life it, day in day out. Or you can just gloss over it. The biggest, single most idea I can plant in your head is that life is eternal i.e. death as we call it is a phase and moving from…

 Hi, friends!!!

 I don't know why this kind of sentences come to me but they keep on comin'...

 Priests don't understand life because their idea of God is too narrow, while scientists don't understand God because their idea of life is too narrow.

 have fresh fun today, people!!! :-P

Divine Knowledge

Madame Blavatsky once remarked that ‘to gain the divine knowledge by a system of coaching and cramming is the ideal of the average beginner in occult study’, but the originators of the Theosophical Society refused ‘to encourage such false hopes’. She further asserts, one-hundredth (of the members of the TS) only has the correct idea of…

The Hindu Philosophy

T Subba Row (1856-’90)

In studying the ancient texts of Indian philosophy certain important points must not be lost sight of. The words gradually begin to change their meaning. In determining the meaning of particular passages, the age of those passages, the particular significance attached to certain words those times must be kept in mind. For instance, the word yajna: it is easy to translate it as animal…

ORIGINS AND UNFOLDMENT OF HUMANITY

Introduction:

Madame H P Blavatsky, the chief exponent of the theosophical philosophy, has given to the world “The Secret Doctrine,” which is a granary of ideas. The purpose of the book in her terms is:

1. to show that Nature is not “a fortuitous concurrence of atoms”,
2. to assign to man his rightful place in the scheme of the universe.
3. to rescue from degradation the archaic…

The Point that Never Vanishes

An immaculate White disk within a dull background.

The same disk, but with a Central Point.

The point in the hitherto immaculate disk denotes the dawn of Differentiation.

It is the point in the Mundane Egg, the Germ within which will become The Universe,

The All, the Boundless periodical Kosmos. –…
